A great deal of merriment was occa sioned last evening by the attempts of some of our good citizens to have their lungs tested. A contrivance had been prepared, which was certainly ingenious. It was an innocent looking affair and one was easily persuaded to blow into it. When they did so, they received a charge ofaoot in the face. One of the Chronicle men happened down at the Umatilla l last evening, and in monkeving with 1 the thing, got his face and glasses paint- fed black.

Asto- rians are ever ready to appreciate tbe beauties of music, as was evidenced by the large audience that assembled to bear Miss Gladys Jones and her able as sistants. Her voice is one of more than ordinary power and sweetness, and it commands absolute attention from the first bell-like tone to the last faint echo. Her pieces, being among the best, were nicely adapted to show the scope and range of her contralto voice. Astoria Herald. -.f Miss Hattie Stevens of Lewiston, Ida., who has passed her examination before the commissioners to appear as pianist at the world's fair, has arrived in the Garden City to prepare herself for her task, under the tuition of Prof. Jean Holtbuer.

Missoula Democrat. Ladles Day at tne Club. Yesterday the Commercial and Ath letic Club went into the hands of re ceivers, the lady friends of theyblub tak ing complete -charge of ""eterfrthing in sight. By a resolution of Ufetruetees, passed some time ago, each 'huraday is set apart for the ladies, and yesterday was the first of the days so observed. From 1 p. m to 6 the beauty and fashion 'of the town were well represented in the club rooms. The gentlemen had gener ously distributed their cards, so that the delegation of visitors was large. Tbe bowling alley was the scene of most interest, and here it was the ladies spent most of their time endeavoring to throw the balls so they would keep on the narrow path. Miss Sula Rucb proved the most successful and carried off the bowline honors with a score of 20. The billiard table and gymnasium were well patronized, and altogether the ladies much appreciated the afternoon's diversion. All the club lacked was the hearty support of the ladies, and that deficiency is now most satisfactorily filled. Concert Program.
